After you issue the cp query, did you disconnect? -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of CHAPLIN, JAMES (CTR) Sent: Friday, March 18, 2011 5:07 PM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Server rebooting after doing a CP Q DA from the console
Found a problem today with CP QUERY command that caused our Linux Server to reboot. Using vmcp from a zLinux server, I issued the following command: vmcp q dasd | less Binary file (standard input) matches Error: output (21282 bytes) was truncated, try --buffer to increase size This guest has a large number of DASD attached to it (Oracle database) causing this problem. (Should have used the 'vmcp -b nnnn q dasd | less') But I thought I would try the same command from the guest console (#CP Q DA), and got the following response just before the server rebooted: DASD 4886 ON DASD 4886 R/W VI1304 SUBCHANNEL = 014C DASD 4887 ON DASD 4887 R/W VI1305 SUBCHANNEL = 014D Error: output (21282 bytes) was truncated, Two questions as I am a VM rookie, How to you modify the buffer from the console for the CP command? How do you display the buffer size available for a CP command? Also: Why would a query command on a console bring down a linux guest, but vmcp query does not? Is this a know bug?
